Pass variables to current tab via chrome extension
- by iamthejeff
I am writing my first chrome extension, and I want to pass a variable to the currently opened tab and manipulate the DOM with it.
My extension has a button, and when clicked, is executing this code:
chrome.tabs.getSelected(null, function(tab) {
chrome.tabs.executeScript(tab.id, {
file: 'tabscript.js'
});
});
This works fine, but I see no way to pass a variable to tabscript.js so it can be used on the opened tab.
